Local Mermaid Diagram Skill

Use this skill when the user asks for a Mermaid diagram plus a rendered image or SVG. Work from the provided source files and keep the diagram auditable.

Workflow

1. Extract the entities and relationships into a small table before writing the diagram.
2. Save Mermaid source as requested, using graph TD or flowchart TD when the user asks for a hierarchy.
3. Use subgraphs for groups such as teams, committees, systems, or phases.
4. Use edge styles consistently. For example, solid arrows for primary relationships and dotted arrows for secondary memberships.
5. If a Mermaid renderer is available, render the Mermaid directly. If not, create a standalone SVG locally with Python or another available tool that preserves the same nodes, labels, groups, and edge meanings.
6. Keep a source matrix when the user asks for auditability: source entity, relationship type, target, role, and source quote.

Do not install or configure an MCP server during the task.
